crowding around us as usual appear three
or four big aristocratic boats manned by
twenty or thirty natives apiece. AMI rooted

fellow. with features almost as regular as

and is presented to us by the somewhat
original tltlrof David Fine-C Country"
As the boats circle to and fro there
arises from them a weird. monotonous
music like the distant beating Of a drum.
This Is produced by a kind Of rude har-
mOnium formed Of thin Stats Of wood
nailnl upon a rough framework, and
played with two short sticks. This
curious cuntryance is a telegraph rs well

this way two natives can hold aconversa-

How Victoria Was Named.

Considering the strained relations
with Russia which have marked the
whole course Of the queens reign il is re-
markahle that her first anne Alexan-
Trina. should have been conferred upon
her in honor Of the then rcigning car,
of whom the Duke Of Kent was an adj
mircr, and who was our faithful and
close ally. II was in the Castlereagh
perl"d of our foreign policy. George ~
was Ia have contributed another name,
GeorgIana. But Georgiana Alexandrina
would have deprived the emperor Of the
place Of precedence. and Alexandria
Gcurgiana" would have derogated from
the claims Of the name borne by the ac-
tual king Of England and all his Hano-
verian predecessors. The name Of the
queens mother was therefore substituted
for that OF her uncle. In the commence
ment II the christening of the new born
princess she was called Alexandria Vic
toire. but the second name was speedily
Anglicized or Latinized into Victoria.
A little before William Ms death
there was some fiutter among official
people as TO the designation under which
the queen expectant should lie proclaimed
and should remain, and Lord Campbell,
then Sir John Campbell and attorney gen.
eral, represents himself rs having decided
this matter, in conjunction with Charles
Greyille and Lord Lyndhurst ~, represent.
ing the opposition, in favor Of the haptis.
NAL names for the proclamation, leaving it
TO the queen TO choose afterwarl the name
under which she should reign. Among
other absurd suggestions there wa one
that she should he styled Elizabeth III.
The assumption apparently was that her
majesty was always TO remain a maiden
queen, with perhaps Lord Melbourne for
her Leicester, Lord John Russell for her
Essex, and Sir John Campbell for her Sir
Francis Bacon! The fates happily have
otherwise determined. But il is
curious 10 think that but for chance or
caprice on good sense we might now be
preparing for the jubilee, not Of Queen
Victoria. but Of Queen Alexandria or
Queen Georgiana-lpu u Queen Elizabeth

Up the stairs with measured footsteps:
But she turned
where q lamp in brazen bracket
Brightly burned.

THE CHICAGO LOCKOUT.
The Brick-Layers in Good Spirits-The En-

CHICAGO May 2l.-The brick-layers were in a
happy frame of mind this morning. According
to the report of the executive committee. which,
hereafter, is to have complete control of the
laboring mems end Of tho trouble, about two
thousand brickmen are now at work in the city,
and some 600 500 are said to have secured jobs
in country towns near. Not cent has, yet, been
drawn from the treasury in support of idle
members, ard If it is necessary to support any
the money will be raised by assessment on those
at work until it becomes positively necessary to
use the reserve 1t is claimed that very few
carpenters are out of work. and that the lockout
has not been success in that branch of the
building trade. A few men have been thrown
out, but not enough TO make any perceptible eff
feet on the organization.
AT the meeting of the Master Builders Asso-
citation. Monday evening, the declaration
of principles will be brought up and
very warmly discussed there are some
members who think the measure necessary,
while others consider its adoption more harmful
TO the members of the association than to any
other body. The hopes of the master builders
for settlement of the existing troubles
seem to be ceptered upon the action of the exec
utive board of the National Builders Assoca
